TWO LONG NOVELS OF DEMONIAC MENACE AND CHILLING HORROR

Queens of Beauty and Horror by George Edson

"What had happened to those lovely dancing girls who had vanished so silently, leaving their men behind them—ruthlessly murdered? What monster of evil could have created the satanic orgies which ended so horribly?"

Bride of the Serpents by J.O. Quinliven

"I struggled blindly in the relentless grip of the deadly quicksands—while the girl I loved was a helpless victim in the hands of the mad sculptor! Could I do nothing to save her from the hell of frightfulness that lay before her?"

THREE SOUL-SHAKING NOVELETTES OF GHASTLY TERROR

Mistress of Satan's Hounds by Frederick C. Davis

"Once before a lovely woman had fallen before the savage fangs and fiendish desires of that hellborn pack—and the whole county still shuddered at the thought of the monstrosity she bore. Now, Jeff and Laura could hear their ominous, lusting calls coming closer."

Pleasure Cruise To Hell by Donald Graham

"The yacht rolled heavily in the path of the approaching hurricane, and the only shelter in sight was the home of unfathomable evil—Madman's Isle! Fear raged through their hearts like a roaring sword of fire...."

When the Banshee Calls by Wayne Rogers

"Would it never come; the merciful thrust of the knife that would put an end to agony almost unendurable? Or was it her doom to be forever one of the living dead...."

THREE MYSTERY-TERROR SHORTS

Beauty and the Butcher by Holden Sanford

"In my hand is a bloody knife and beside me the crimson fragment of a human ear! And, God help me, I know it's the ear of the woman I love!"

Kiss of the Flame Blossom by Donald Dale

"Whether she was woman or devil, I will never know, but when she stood before me in all her awful beauty, all thoughts of love and honor fled from my mind and I arose to answer her call—to embrace the Blossom of Fire!"

Cat-Woman by Ray Cummings

"I feel the eyes of my bride upon me—watchful, waiting, slumberous—like the eyes of a cat on a mouse. Soon, I think, she will . . . pounce!"
